Approach and connection in online therapy
Erica Sandoval draws from several evidence-informed approaches to support concerns like stress, anxiety, depression, trauma-related symptoms, and relationship or family strain. Client-Centered Therapy focuses on creating a supportive, respectful space where clients can explore emotions and experiences at their own pace, which can be especially helpful when someone feels overwhelmed, stuck, or unsure where to begin.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) helps clients notice how thoughts, feelings, and behaviors interact, then practice new ways of responding. This approach is often useful for anxiety, social anxiety, low mood, and self-esteem concerns. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) adds practical skills for emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and communication, which can be helpful when feelings escalate quickly or relationships feel intense.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Erica collaborates with clients to identify goals, preferences, and what has or has not helped in the past, then tailors sessions to fit those needs over time.
Online therapy makes support more flexible and accessible. Clients can meet through video calls or phone sessions, and also use live chat or text-based messaging to stay connected between sessions, making it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule.
